Good article criteria[edit]

Well written[edit]

  • ...the city served as the capital of Zand dynasty... Should that be ...the city served as the capital of the Zand dynasty...?
  • Wasn't Istanbul known as Constantinople back in the 19th century?
  • The delegates of Russia and Britain urged Mohammad-Ali Khan to stay longer so that the Iranians and Ottomans could exchange the confirmed treaty, which did not have with him. This is grammatically incorrect. In particular, that last part.
  • ...as he was not supposed to stay there for longer than two weeks. Is "there" referring to Istanbul or Paris? I reckon it should be explicitly stated which one.
  • The letter of Mohammad Shah... What is this letter? It was not mentioned earlier in the article.
  • ...which also says that Mirza-Mohammad Ali had with the approval of Naser al-Din Shah sent thirty aristocratic and princely children to the newly established college. I would add commas to change this to ...which also says that Mirza-Mohammad Ali had, with the approval of Naser al-Din Shah, sent thirty aristocratic and princely children to the newly established college.

Verifiable with no original research[edit]

  • A search using Earwig's Copyvio Detector turned up no copyright violations.
  • The URL for Mousavi 2022 was not working, so I replaced it with a new URL. Hope that's OK.
  • Gurney & Nabavi 1993 says that Mohammad-Ali Khan died on 10 February 1852, not 9 February. Mousavi 2022 says that he died on 9 February though. Which one is right? If your not sure, I think the discrepancy should be mentioned in the article. E.g. Mohammad-Ali Khan died of illness on 9 or 10 February 1852 in Tehran.

Broad in its coverage[edit]

  • From reading through Mousavi 2022, I believe that this article "addresses the main aspects of the topic" and "stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail" as per the GA criteria.

Neutral[edit]

Stable[edit]

Illustrated, if possible[edit]

  • Thankfully all the images are old enough for copyright to not be a problem.
  • Not required: I recommend adding alt text to the image for accessibility reasons.

General[edit]

Those are all the comments I have, so I'm putting the review on hold for seven days for you to address them. Steelkamp (talk) 07:38, 23 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
